I agree with what you have put forth , but I am asking why?
Same age same growth curve only establishing themselves as 2nd line wingers in the 2nd half of the 2014-15 season. Bouma actually missed a full year of development blowing out his knee.
Silvferberg had a great playoffs.... that apparently is the difference between a 3.75x 4 to a 2.2x3.
A lot of people do have Bouma slotted as a bottom 6... similarly to having him as the 21st prospect in the summer of 2013 when he was about to start his 78 game season with the Flames. Bouma is the Rodney Dangerfield of the Flames.
